Lose 10 stone within 12 months?! (Rousse)
I estimated that the 10 stone that B planned to lose within twelve months was half her body weight. Given her track record with the scales, I very much doubted that she would ever achieve this, but I kindly kept … Continue reading
Bigamous wife to lose inheritance (Rousse)
I was intensely jealous that TPR was courting our university friend HB, and worried that he would leave everything to her, rather than to me. There was, however, a more tricky issue regarding the inheritance. I had bigamously ‘married’ TPR … Continue reading

Cancer patient makes an early, and ill-advised, return to work (Rousse)
LM was shocked to see me in the corridor on campus. ‘Whatever are you doing here?’ she shouted. ‘You’ve got cancer. Go back home to your sickbay!’ My own opinion was that I was fit to work. Then I tried … Continue reading

Losing weight and losing your mind (Rousse)
Belle and I were having huge problems dealing with TIX. Although we were terribly impressed by her recent weight loss, we were distressed to discover that she had also lost her mind. When she jumped out of the car in … Continue reading
Celebrating Easter on Holy Island – as an alternative to Match of the Day (Rousse)

Conference confusion (Rousse)
I was regretting my decision to accept the invitation to chair the conference, especially now that the ‘man in charge’ was obviously ignoring the programme and directing the delegates keen to hear the plenary session into a field. This was … Continue reading
Dangerous deletion of Facebook friends (Rousse)
